[Music] Healing for Joy Song

"Healing for Joy" Lyrics by Leigh Farnell / Inspired by a Therapist's Truth [Verse 1] I walked into that room with my battle-scarred heart Wore pain like armor, been broken from the start Said, "I'm just trying to be strong, to survive the storm" He looked in my eyes and said, "That's not what healing's for" [Pre-Chorus] "You already know how to carry the weight You've lived through the fire, you've walked through the gate" And then he smiled — like he'd opened a door And said something I'd never heard before [Chorus] "You're not healing just to hold the pain Not to brave the storm or stand in the rain You're used to sorrow — it's joy you push away You're healing now to let the light stay" To laugh without guilt, to dance without fear To welcome the sunrise and know you belong here You're not healing for more pain to destroy You're healing now… to hold joy [Verse 2] I never knew that peace could feel so raw It scared me more than the things I saw Felt like betrayal to smile again But he said, "This is where your new life begins" [Pre-Chorus] "You've built a home in survival mode But now it's time to lay that burden down" And I felt my heart — just start to unfold At the thought that I could love this life I hold [Chorus] 'Cause I'm not healing just to hold the pain Not to brave the storm or stand in the rain I'm used to sorrow — it's joy I've turned away But I'm healing now to let the light stay To laugh without guilt, to dance without fear To open my arms and say, "I deserve to be here" I'm not healing for more pain to destroy I'm healing now… to hold joy [Bridge] It's not weakness to feel the sun To let yourself shine when the darkness is done I'm learning now what strength really means To feel safe in peace, to dream tender dreams [Final Chorus] I'm not healing just to hold the pain I'm not just surviving — I'm living again It's time I welcomed the love I've denied Time I let happiness back inside To laugh with my whole heart, not look away To believe I deserve a beautiful day I'm not healing for more pain to destroy I'm healing now… I'm healing now… To hold joy   Links to Podcast - Leading Your Best Life Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1fnDlrXvIj7b6P1NP4ZP3h?si=2dd37c03e5494501 Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/leading-your-best-life-with-leigh-farnell/id1421054862 Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6y0JxVJsGnI&list=PLHBG3_iAZUoa3cSaWkBVS9neKsMoa62dK Youtube - click here Apple Podcasts - click here Spotify - click here Links to donate to support Leading Your Best Life Podcast https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=JMHAAMN2HL3MN ThatsATeeShirtCompany.com  The Most Empowering Apparel on the Planet - Check it Out!
